Cafe Lokum reviews
64For 23$ meal, the serving was tiny. Can hardly see any rice and can count the number of salad leaf.
DONT GO HERE! Cafe Lokkum has bad customer service. We popped in to have a late lunch and upon walking in, the staff were sitting down eating (which is fine). But the door was open and when we walked up to order, we were met with cold unwelcoming stares. The person who wanted to take our order had a bad attitude and hastily asked if we wanted to “eat in or not” and when we mentioned eat in, she said we could only order large kebabs and no other size. We walked straight out.
Highly recommend going to Kilim instead!
Very poor dining experience. Very disappointed.
The food we would like to order wasn't available, and tea we were ordered never was delivered.
Overall, food was tasteless.
Please keep in mind, they are charging you for the "pay wave".
Was pretty disappointed to go in tonight at 8.20 and just be told "we're closed"
Well update your opening hours and have the closed sign on your door. Open til 9pm not
Went with friends and ordered Adana kebab. Instead got meatballs, seemed supermarket brought, wrapped in floor tortilla. Tasted disgusting and an absolute mockery of traditional Adana kebab.
Don't go there if you are after authentic Turkish food.
So sad,
We absolutely love Lokum, their food is delicious and the staff is always friendly.
We ordered 4 chicken meze’s which were $25 each ($100 total) and the portions were significantly smaller then we have come to expect. I dont think it is good value anymore at this new size.
Some of the menu items weren't available and you didn't know which until after you'd ask for it. Portion sizes seemed small. Although tasty.
It is a nice Turkish restuarant run by real Turkish people! The dishes were cooked in a kitchen near the front of the house. The dishes were of good portion size but not such that you might overeat. All in all a good meal.
Good food.cozy.family friendly
Delicious taste for good price
Highly recommended
Six of us went there for dinner on Friday night. The shop was packed when we get there. Food was really good as well as service. All of us were happy with what we've got. Good job girls. We will definitely be back.
Yummy, reasonably priced Turkish food. Great service. BYO only, no on license.traditional gooey cornflour Turkish delight. Lovely place.
Sorry i got the wrong kebab shop. I posted a review on this cafee but actually it was a different one in petone. Sorry.
We are vegetarian and love Turkish food, the mezze plate for 2 was more than we could eat. Loved the selection of dips, especially the eggplant and beetroot and under the bread was salad and olives. I bought some Turkish Delight as we left and it is some of the best I've eaten. The decor was interesting, especially the clock.
Called in after a movie and got seated quickly without having a booking. Husband had the recommended beef moussaka and I had a kebab. Little bit of a wait but restaurant was busy and the food was well worth the wait. Cheap and delicious meal!
We usually have a takeaway but decided to eat in this time. We all had kebabs, mine was chicken. Was delicious with nice fresh ingredients and I like that they put tabouleh in the kebab as standard. The others had chips, I don't eat them but they looked so good and the seasoning smelt so yum! They said they were nice.
Good reasonable prices, very filling. I really like that when I've had a kebab from here I don't have a pool of sauce at the bottom that spills out everywhere.
Would definitely recommend this place.
Really nice kebabs. The hot sauce actually has some heat which is nice. The lunch deal is pretty good value but outside that a bit spendy for a turkish spot.
Lovely food & two young very friendly staff members, the boss/cook could be a little more friendlier. Eaten here 3 times and would definitely go back love the food.
Lovely food good value for money. We were needing to get to a movie booking and they were able to be speedy yet tasty
Great dishes with great quantity, I prefer the Mixed grill, always great with a mix of meat and all and their chips are nice and fresh and crunchy
